Abstract

Using a dependency table generated from communication with a component in operation of a system configuration element and describing the component in operation of each system configuration element and a dependency between the system configuration elements, and a CFIA analysis table which describes a redundancy detail of each system configuration element, a design information integration part associates the redundancy detail to the component in operation of each system configuration element. A display part displays the component in operation of each system configuration element and a dependency between system configuration elements. Based on associating by the design information integration part, the display part displays the redundancy detail of each system configuration element in correspondence with displaying the component in operation of each system configuration element.
